It is still there just not open to post or edit. And what they really needed were objective moderators who also dig into what is being posted to see how accurate it was or was not. There were some incredibly nasty cyber bullies on there who would post anything no matter how libelous and malicious. And these few posters seemed to take great joy in causing others severe emotional distress.

Those of us who tried to post links and argue in terms of policy issues based on analysis of effects on real people and the like were often met just with personal insults and revelations of usually irrelevant personal information.
